Presentation Design
“Globalization, Competing Metaphors”-
This presentation was designed as an introduction to the topic of Globalization. The presentation was given to individuals participating in a border immersion trip along the El Paso – Juarez border. I used two contrasting metaphors to create competing mental models for individuals to wrestle with during their immersion experience.
I was excited to see this post on Duarte’s website not long after I finished this presentation. In the post Duarte touches on the benefits to be gained from …..
- not spelling everything out for your audience (give them enough to draw the conclusion themselves)
- tension and unresolved endings can be motivating, engaging
- tension in visual imagery (produces emotion)
- using visual metaphors (they connect a known realm to unknown, powerful)
